I went round the real museum recently with viva_gloria, who knows it backwards. Foolishly, I offered to buy her a cocktail if she knew who any of the four navy statues in the courtyard was without reading the plaques. Good thing I didn't say one cocktail for each statue.

It's a great place and I hope we go back soon. In the meantime, this looks almost as good. Thanks.
